Four years ago, Jasper was in an accident that left his hind legs completely paralyzed. But after the trial, he’s up and running again.

All they did was inject the injury site with stem cells found in… the dog’s nose. Seriously.

More specifically, they’re using “olfactory ensheathing cells” that benefit from strong regenerative capabilities.

As Professor Robin Franklin of the study says, these “are very specialized cells that are found in the part of the nervous system that deals with the special sense of smell. [This] part of the nervous system continually regenerates the nerve cells that pick up odors in the environment… If there wasn’t a capacity to keep regenerating these nerve fibers, we’d lose the sense of smell very quickly.”

What’s more, scientists say this method could help regenerate nerve fibers to help human paraplegics restore movement, as well.

Bless the imaginative souls that went forth and experimented with the cell transplant. I’m of the conviction that everything humanity needs for restoration of mind and body is already within our grasp, and always has been. It’s just waiting to be discovered by the brilliant and inquisitive minds that walk among us. Congratulations and God Bless.

Is there any possibility you know of someone who would experiment with this in humans? I have a spinal cord infarction from six years ago and can not use my legs. I would try anything to be able to walk again!

Every time President Trump rails against the media, he adds millions in market capitalization to The New York Times Company (NYT). So buying a few call options on NYT is virtually certain to pay off. If you’ve never traded options, fear not. I asked my senior analyst, Martin Hutchinson, to describe options so that a kindergartener would understand.
